Hi,

I am sure this has been answered, but i bought a second hand renault megane 2011. Did not come with SD card for the tomtom carminat. I bought one from amazon from a reputed seller. When I put the card into the car, it shows message: Problem with map, you cannot use this map on this device: United_Kingdom_and_Republic_of_Ireland-305.
Can anyone help me please.
I have downloaded the tomtom home and updated the card but still same message.
Thank you.

    Hi
    see with Amazon Tomtom is not responsible for cards purchased on the Amazon site.

    Well that's not very helpful is it? Maybe be a little more constructive in your reply if your going to try helping someone. Nevermind I managed to get the same SD working. Thanks but no thanks

    Sometimes cards sold on Amazon or other sites are pirated cards.

    As @DougLap says, come back tomorrow to see if moderator @VikramK can activate a card.

    Hi @abdul4544
    A map has been activated for your TomTom. Just remove the existing map first and then download fresh version using TomTom HOME.

    @abdul4544 How did you get it resolved, please?

    Thanks

    Hi @Lumi_s2
    Welcome to the community, and sorry for my late reply. Map activated for your TomTom, just remove the existing map first and download a fresh version offered under updates in TomTom HOME.

    Regards
    Vikram.

    Hello, I have updated the dash navigation via TomTom Home, but after the update, there was a message on the dash saying Problem with map. You can not use this map on this device: Europe-100565. What can I do to solve this problem?'

    Hi @TomasM
    The device is not linked to your TomTom account, I am unable to reactivate a map.
    Could you send me the serial number of your device through a private message by clicking on this link-https://discussions.tomtom.com/en/messages/add/VikramK, please ?

    Thanks, Vikram
